As a newcomer to Balmung, I cannot speak to the RP going on behind FC doors, but I am happy to see public RP going on both in town and in the field. My preference is for that sort of interaction, so it is nice to eavesdrop for a moment or two, just to get a snapshot that makes Eorzea seem that much more vibrant. While I would not interrupt, it definitely gives me an idea of who I might whisper later, if only for leads on potential avenues for future RP.
